Reine~

The banquet went on, different royal faces. Familiar and unfamiliar faces filled up the banquet hall as the dined to their heart desires.

I felt pressed but staring up at the King who was seated on the throne, his eyes darting up and down his people.

"Say what you have to say and get on with it." I lifted my gaze to meet that of the King whose stare was so intense, you'd think he was smitten by my beauty.

"I am pressed."

He frowned. "And you want to leave? You have to hold it in, princess. I don't know what your father taught you but you don't get to-"

"Is it the father you killed? I don't know which you're talking about, Your Majesty."

The King looked taken aback by my retort. His eyes held amusement like he had never expected me to stand up for myself.

And then he laughed. Loud and creepy.

"I knew you had it in you. A little push and you'd see the demon she's hiding underneath." He smirked. "Stand." He commande

  • The King's Raw Obsession   Nothing..

    Chapter 22 Nothing ~Reine"Milady!" Ulia barged into the room, with a silk in hand."Hmm." I looked up from the embroidery I had been making.It was the only thing I could think of doing right now."Look! The King gave you a silk for the Art of Craft! Milady! I told you the King has a soft spot for you! Everyone is talking about it." Ulia twirled around with the silk in her hand.She pulled the pin down and the beautiful dress came into view.'Unique.' That was the only word I had for the dress.Royalty.This was one of the finest silks in the land.A fabric only worn by the noblest of them all.The King barely wears it and mostly for important meetings.Why would the King give me one of these? Was this another form of punishment?What was his game?He made me a Lady after declaring me a slave and now he dresses me up?"Drop it on the chair, Ulia, and come see my new embroidery?" I said and Ulia frowns."Do you not like it? I can hav

  • The King's Raw Obsession   Perfect

    Chapter 21 Perfect~ReineMy whole body itches.It feels like I was thrown into a pool filled with writh grass.What was so important that they couldn't let me bathe first?I stood outside the throne room, scratching every reachable part of my body. The door to the throne room opens, and I step in.Unlike before, the throne room was empty and only the King could be spotted on his chair, looking down at me like he owned the world.Maybe he does."Your Majesty." I bowed, ignoring the part of my body that needed my fingers and nails."Sit." He ordered and I sat on the mat placed on the wooden floor.He said nothing afterwards, as he picked a scroll and began to read.I ignored the urge to roll my eyes and stand up. That would probably get me killed."Have you heard the rumours?" The King said, staring at me."No, I've been at the mine ever since morning, Your Majesty. I have not heard of any rumour." I answered."It's about a certai

  • The King's Raw Obsession   Case

    Chapter 20 CaseReine~There was a death case at the Palace Courtyard. Maids, guards, everyone was talking about it. Someone died in the courtyard. Someone related to the Ministry of Rites. Some said, it was an assassin who flew pass the Palace huge walls killed him while others said, he was against a powerful family and that got him killed. None of it was my business as I sat on the chair, watching Ulia brush my hair."It will be very crowded outside the Palace today. I suggest you do not visit the Mine today." Ulia said."You've said this for more than ten times today, Ulia. And my answer remains the same. Do not worry, no one knows about me. Not everyone knows how I look and I will go with a veil." I replied and she sighed defeatedly. "I do not want anything to happen to you, Milady. If anyone dare try to harm you... I'll fight them myself, using nothing but a fork and I knife. I'm very good with that." She said and I smiled."Tha

    Chapter 19 EnclosedReine~I walked out of the meeting room, arranging my dress as I looked for the King. Maids passed by and greeted me while some looked away and acted like I wasn't there. That wasn't my business. I had a place to be and I had to be quick with it.I was about to head to my room first and get dressed cause I had some alcohol on my skin and garment when I got stopped by the Lady who almost ran into me... calling it an accident."Lady Ursula.""Hmm. Lady Reine." She smiled and fanned herself. "Are you familiarizing yourself with the things of the palace?" She asked."You forget that I was once a princess. No need to do that. I was born with the blood running in my veins." I said with a smile and that seemed to piss her off."You're good with your tongue. I wonder how good you'll be if I cut it off." "Careful there, Lady Ursula. I've had enough of your little tantrums. Don't you know that a little of-" I snapped my finger and

    Chapter 18 TemptationReine~He was a killer. The man who killed my father, my mother. My entire family and my people. Well, most of them. But why the hell do I feel sad when I think of making him pay for what he did to my people.The Kings were almost done with their drunken stupor. I walked back into the room and took a seat.The King of Latoli, King Herod smiled at me and stood up."This is the formal Princess of the Kingdom of Icanar, right?" He asked and chuckled. I was beginning to hate this man."Yes. Is she beautiful?" The King asked, sipping his tea."She is." He grinned, ruffling his beard as he stared at me lustfully."You've had a taste of this beautiful princess. Why not let me have mine. She's very beautiful, perhaps we can talk about being allies after you let.." He trailed off, winking at me."Oh please." The King gestured for him to go on. "She's all yours. You can do to her as you please but mind you, she's a feisty one. If

    Chapter 17 SituationsReine~I was being dressed up like a doll. Just like the day of the banquet, beautiful beads and golden adornments were placed on my neck, head and different parts I could wear."Do I really have to go, Ulia?" I groaned as she placed another hairpin into my long black hair, rolling the hair up and smiling at her handwork.I had sent they other maids away, telling them she could do better and she wanted to do her best."You don't really have a choice, Milady. Do you?" She asked."You don't have to put it that way, Ulia." I rolled my eyes and she chuckled."You're the finest female in the whole land, Milady. They King won't be able to take his eyes off you. He'll be so enthralled." She clasped her hands together and looked away dreamily."It will do you so much good if you stop dreaming. I do not want to make him enthralled. I do not care whether or not he likes my dress." I said and looked at my reflection in the mirror
